Rogues still got it?

So I've used 3 different builds in the last week on my lvl 54 Rogue. The first I had High Strenght and Focus. From top to bottom it was 150, 5, 80, 50. I soon realized I had too much energy when I was able to get embossed plate. After the update with Sneaky Attack really stinking (It should be made to hit double of what it is now) I decided to buy a BoR. I did and had 20, 40, 75, 150. It worked but It took a long time to kill anything even low levels. Now I have 160, 40, 30, 60 which makes it hard on high levels that hit hard like FireKnights. The only good things is on Boss fights or enimies with lots of health but don't hit high I own them. My normal hits hit from 50-100 with rend 20-50 and quick attack 70-110. So to sum it up every 2 hits I can hit at my max 330 every 4 seconds. It's not as good as you mages but for all the Rogues it sure gives us something to look foward to. I still think Sneaky Attack should be doubled and Offhand daggers have more options. Perhaps a way to be able to have 2 normal daggers which would be epic and look pretty cool. It should have to be maybe a quest you do prier that each class does that gives them a decent advantage. Rogues get duel weilded normal weapons. Mages get a fast ice spell that's like Fireball but hits harder and is castsable in combat. Warriors could have some sort of defender that is like a Rogue but for a Warrier. Druids have pets and so on. It may take a while but it might spice up the game and give everyone something to work on getting that takes some time since Hairy who is supposed to be hard I soloed as a Warrier at level 7. That should not happen so hopefully someone can share their ideas as well.

I would but they never get talked about... And yes there fine but I see a massive difference between every class and mages. There find but every other class should be boosted. It seems that the mobs are getting harder while everything else gets new skills that own but the one we had was made useless! Idk I'm hoping the update brings some cool stuff even if it's not to do with Sneaky Attack since I don't even use it anymore but it would be nice to increase it a bit. I still like a Rogue and it does make being a level 54 cool because everyone else has a hard time leveling which I hate. I want the new players to have a chance while leveling because it seems half the high leveled Rogues have became other classes. I just hope we become a class that people want to be and not something that's talked about like this cause I hate ranting like this and I just want all of it to end. I hope we just become a good class again and all this just stops having classes rant why hate something and just be ranting on how good the game is

But it's talked about this way specifically because of posts like this. Sneaky attack needed to be nerfed and I'm glad it did. It was way wayyy to easy to get my rogue to 36 compared to my Druid. Rogue isn't meant to hit that hard, they are a sneaky type class. Now you need to train hide to get off a sneaky attack. Poison weapon is great and quick strike is incredible. Rogues were nerfed, yes, but they are still very viable, only now you need a new approach.

Thanks Dayton. As a mid-level Rogue trying to figure out my build, hearing the results of your trials helps a lot. Thanks for sharing.

I agree it was way too easy to level up. I got from 1/30 in about 1 hour and a half which is way too fast. Yes Sneaky Attack had to be Nerfed but I don't think it should be that weak. I just hope they tweak it until it's at a point where at level 10 it's possible to hit 400-500 because that's about about how good Ice Shards is at level 4 ish. Also everyone says use hide, which I wish I could say as well. I have my Hide at level 8 and even for Black Guards I can't use Sneak Attack because hide expires too fast. If the Devs were to make it so it expires after 3 seconds of combat it could make it so were invisible until we can finish the Sneak Attack and not have a Invalid come up because your too close. And I am liking Poison Weapon and Fast reflex I have 124 damage with Poison weapon which let's me kill Black Guards in 2 attacks or 4 seconds.

no one needs to be able to do 300-500 damage with a single attack
